Nah, they didn't even try going after past actors in the beginning of Decade. The basic ideas was always AUs reimaginations since they didn't want to actually continue the past stories. It's why you get more returning actors and AU versions that are basically identical to the originals after Sho Aikawa leaves. The original plan always involved new actors for AU versions of the characters.
